So I live opposite of a thin car tunnel that goes through a building behind which there's parking lots. It's the only way in and out.
And guess how many people ignore the no parking sign and park... RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TUNNEL... I mean I have a fart for a brain, but these guys operate vehicles and have bloody zilch for brains. It's happened so many times and I have my window facing it so I always see when some schmuck parks in that tunnel blocking everyone from passing.
What if someone has an emergency and needs to go to the hospital? Bloody morons...

Yeah that's the thing. All that energy dissipates eventually.
Ice damn in the corner of my roof where it juts over my kitchen and meets the siding. I found the leak in the downstairs bathroom and thought it must be the upstairs tub, but that's offset by about six feet. A little investigation, and I found the ice dam "perfectly" sloped into the corner on the northeast side where sun can't reach in the winter. They're usually not an issue around here because we don't get prolonged snow cover or consecutive weeks below freezing, but this year is the exception. And most roofs are sloped enough to mitigate it, but this short, lower roof is more on the flat side.
The good news is that my showerhead hose was long enough to extend out the upstairs bathroom window, onto the roof in question, perfectly angled toward the problem corner. It made an ungodly mess but that bitch is melted! The leak downstairs dried up immediately, so I'm hoping no more than a piece of flange is needed in that corner come springtime. I need a new roof right now like I need a hole in head.

School bullies are "fun", but teacher-intervention is better!
That's all right, there are enough politicians in the world right now who will do it for you.
Or you could employ Wowbagger the Infinitely Prolonged to do it!

Spending too much time on internet forums...guilty as charged. Like the bumper sticker idea.

The wife, son, and I took a guided winter tour through Yellowstone this weekend. We passed through the entrance gate in West Yellowstone and went up a bit. People were stopped on the side of the road, so we stopped too. On the opposite side of river, a bison and two dogs looked like they were playing next to the water...except they weren't dogs, they were wolves, and...they weren't playing. I mean, they weren't attacking the thing outright - more picking and nipping, then running off, then circling around over and over. But, you realize you're in Yellowstone and the place is utterly legit. Basically, they had it cornered and isolated.
Well, we left and came back that way at the end of the tour. She's crossed to our side of the river and was lying down, slightly injured. No wolves around. But what was obvious was the wolves were waiting for the nightfall, when the tourists were gone.
It was pretty

Though they are opportunistic beasts, wolves mostly hunt at night. It has nothing to do with waiting for tourists to leave. The wolves probably chose that particular animal because it was sick or injured. Taking on even an injured buffalo is a pretty heavy-duty proposition. It's likely the bison fought the wolves off; they might return when the beastie is weaker.

Its February, it snowed yesterday... but i have some flying bug thing that eats me!thought they were supposed to be dead as it's fucking cold?
I didn't get snow.

I'm at a mile above sea level in the Rockies. It was almost 60 degrees today.

keep us posted.Ran out of coffee creamer? Thats fine. Lemme just use this heavy whipping cream that has been sitting in the fridge for an undisclosed amount of time. Smells normal, no chunks.
What the worst that could happen?
Running out of cream is the worst. I have emergency coffee backups hidden all over the house, but cream is difficult to horde.Ran out of coffee creamer? Thats fine.
